The Soundtrack to your Life

[chunkymonkey71]

Right, heres the deal.

A movie is being made on your life. Give us ONE song that you'd put on the soundtrack and tell us why...

(I'm still thinking of it, so I'll post again later.)

[Hoppy2008]

Round Our Way, by Oasis.

Great Topic by the way!

[chunkymonkey71]

Cheers Hoppy!

I think I call Beautiful Day by U2. Not a massive U2 fan but reminds me of living and working in America with my mates.

[Prof Beard]

"Trucking' by the Grateful Dead.

"Lately it occurs to me, what a lomg strange trip it's been"

Don't do it!

[Cactussed]

Benny Hill theme tune for me.
Either that, or the muppet show music...

[B.J.W]

Little Ole Wine Drinker, Me.

Dean Martin

I think I would go with Fortunate Son by CCR.

[Silent1]

Arcade Fire - My Body Is A Cage

Or

Ian Brown - F.E.A.R

[Poledriver]

Lynyrd Skynyrd........"Freebird"

[fathomfive]

Just When You're Thinking Things Over - The Charlatans.

There are just too many to choose from, how about 11 songs / tracks that would fill a CD, thus milking the fanbase?

[BeerForBreakfast]

The Replacements - Here Comes A Regular

[DoubleYellow]

Should name the songs for different events in your life.

Eg.

Birth
Childhood
Teenage Years
Being Low
Being High
First Love
Married Life
Having Kids
Divorce?
Death

Just a suggestion. i've not had time to think about it yet either!

W.A.S.P. All My Life

There are many possibilities, but only one song really sticks out as a moment in time/place.

"Love Generation" by Bob Sinclair. Crap tune, but connected to a great moment.

[Bad-Gerbil]

At various points during the film, I'd have:
Tin Pan Alley Blues - Stevie Ray Vaughan
Ice - Camel (wonderful truck for those who don't know it)
Boys of Summer - Don Henley (for the car chase). It certainly makes me drive faster
Since I've been loving you - Led Zeppelin (for when it gets romantic)
